That's what stars do all the time.
For example, in the sun (and MOST other stars), deep down in the center
of the sun's core, two atoms of Hydrogen get squashed together so hard
that they blend into one atom of Helium AND release some energy.
That's where the sun's energy all comes from. It's called "nuclear fusion".
It needs tremendous temperature and pressure to happen. We know how
to do it, but we can't control it. So far, the only thing we've ever been able
to use it for is Hydrogen bombs.
There are 92 elements on the Periodic Table that are found in nature,
plus another 20 or so that have been made in the laboratory, but only
a few atoms of them.
The question is asking to describe and state and calculate what do the observer on the earth measure for the speed of the laser beam, and base on my research, the answer would be v = 1bc, I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more
Answer:
78 km/h
Explanation:
If I normally drive a 12 hour trip at an average speed of 100 km/h, my destination has a total distance of:
- 100 km/h · 12 h = 1,200 km
Today, I drive the first 2/3 of the distance at 116 km/h. Let's first calculate what 2/3 of the normal distance is.
I've driven 800 km already. I need to drive 400 km more to reach my final destination. I need to figure out my average speed during this last 1/3 of the distance.
To do this, I first need to calculate how much time I spent driving 116 km/h for the past 800 km.
- 116 km/1 h = 800 km/? h
- 800 = 116 · ?
- ? = 800/116
- ? = 6.89655172
I spent 6.89655172 hours driving during the first 2/3 of the distance.
Now, I need to subtract this value from 12 hours to find the remaining time I have left.
- 12 h - 6.89655172 h = 5.10344828 h
Using this remaining time and my remaining distance, I can calculate my average speed.
- ? km/1 hr = 400 km/5.10344828 h
- 5.10344828 · ? = 400
- ? = 400/5.10344828
- ? = 78.3783783148
My average speed during the last third of the distance is around 78 km/h.
